Polluting gaseous emissions from livestock farms and manure management | Webinar series
Livestock farming is a recognised source of significant polluting emissions, prompting extensive research and the development of strategies to monitor, mitigate, and treat these gases. However, the sector still faces a lack of standardised methodologies, particularly at farm-level and during manure management practices, which hinders consistent data comparison and performance assessments across regions and technologies.
Webinar 1 | Monday 17 March, 14h00 - 16h00 CET
Advances in Standardising Emission Monitoring
Development and application of harmonised methodologies for measuring gaseous emissions, addressing current monitoring challenges, and exploring the potential for standardisation.
